Microbiology Spectrum, 2021 The strict anaerobe Clostridium ljungdahlii can ferment CO or H2/CO2 via the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway to acetate, ethanol, and 2,3‐butanediol. This ability has attracted considerable interest, since it can be used for syngas fermentation to produce ...

Exploration of isoxanthohumol bioconversion from spent hops into 8-prenylnaringenin using resting cells of Eubacterium limosum [PDF]
, 2020 Hops is an almost unique source of the potent phytoestrogen 8-prenylnaringenin (8-PN). As hops contain only low levels of 8-PN, synthesis may be more attractive than extraction.

Analysis of the core genome and pan-genome of autotrophic acetogenic bacteria
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Acetogens are obligate anaerobic bacteria capable of reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) to multicarbon compounds coupled to the oxidation of inorganic substrates, such as hydrogen (H2) or carbon monoxide (CO), via the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway.

Metagenomic Insights Into the Ecology, Taxonomy and Metabolic Capabilities of 'Candidatus Darwinibacteriales' Ord. Nov. (Formerly MBA03), a Potential Key Player in Anaerobic Digestion. [PDF]
Microb BiotechnolMetagenomic analysis of anaerobic digesters revealed a dominant, uncultured bacterial taxon—MBA03—now proposed as ‘Candidatus Darwinibacteriales’ ord. nov. This newly defined order includes potential syntrophic acetate‐oxidising bacteria (SAOB), suggesting a key role in methane production.

Carboxydotrophic Acetogenesis in Alkaline Conditions Results in Transient Formate Production by the Halo-Alkaliphilic Acetogen Haloacetibacter carboxydivorans Gen. Nov. sp. Nov. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepThis work presents the physiological exploration of the halo‐alkaliphilic, carboxydotrophic acetogen bacterium MD4. In contrast to well‐characterised neutrophilic and slightly acidophilic acetogenic carboxydotrophs, this work shows an important role for formate production, instead of ethanol, as a redox exhaust mechanism in alkaline conditions ...

Insights into the Ecological Roles and Evolution of Methyl-Coenzyme M Reductase-Containing Hot Spring Archaea [PDF]
, 2019 Several recent studies have shown the presence of genes for the key enzyme associated with archaeal methane/alkane metabolism, methyl-coenzyme M reductase (Mcr), in metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) divergent to existing archaeal lineages.
